Swift chuckled. "There's no magical recipe for finding your talent; do what you love, and at some point, your talent will be revealed as something you love. I loved arguing as a young filly, but I got my Cute Mark when I stood up to bullying and proved why it was wrong and cited school code.

"Wow, wish teachers said it that way," Glory mumbled.

"Oh, but they do! Remember that time when-" Stargazer went off, and there was no stopping her.
